The conceptual design of the GT-MHR was previously presented at the 22 Symposium of the Uranium Institute [1], [2], and [3]. Since the 22 Symposium, a preliminary design of the GT-MHR has been completed and a series of reviews of the preliminary design have been conducted. The reviews concluded the least proven areas of the design to be (1) the TRISO-coated particle fuel and (2) the highly inte...

In this article, a dynamic, lumped model of a Solide Oxide Fuel Cell (SOFC) is described, as a step towards developing control relevant models for a SOFC combined with a gas turbine (GT) in an autonomous power system. The model is evaluated against a distributed dynamic tubular SOFC model. The simulation results confirm that the simple model is able to capture the important dynamics of the SOFC...

Many tools exist for the development of real-time distributed groupware, but most of these tools do not provide an appropriate balance of power and simplicity for necessary for prototyping or research. To better support the middle ground in groupware development, we built a new toolkit called GT/SD. It provides solutions to problems of real-world network performance without sacrificing the simp...

abstract: In the present work, determining the optimal strategy(profit based) of multi virtual power plants (VPPs) as well as the objective of maximizing profit through the multi-level control of VPPs are discussed by the micro-grid utilization center including virtual power plants. VPPs include renewable resources such as wind farms, photovoltaic, and conventional resources such as fuel cell, ...

The green technology wavelength division multiplexing based on polymer optical fiber (GT-WDM-POF) network solution is presented. Green technology polymer optical fiber (GT-POF) splitter has been fabricated by environmental friendly handmade fusion technique, as an effective transmission media to split and recombine a number of different wavelengths. Two different wavelengths from ecologically f...

Gelatin tannate (GT) is a complex of tannic acid, which possesses astringent, antibacterial, and anti-inflammatory properties, and a protective gelatin. It is increasingly being marketed as an antidiarrheal drug. Our aim was to review data on the effectiveness of GT in treating acute gastroenteritis (AGE) in children and adults. The MEDLINE, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Library databases were searc...

This paper proposes the latest application of power tracing technique for voltage stability improvement. Instead of solving losses charge allocation problem in deregulated power market as performed by many researchers, the proposed technique can be implemented for effective static generation power dispatch; that is, by determining suitable generating units involved in re-dispatching with the ai...

This study shows the design of a new hybrid power generation system, photovoltaic panel (PV)–coupled solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) and gas turbine (GT)–electrolyser. Three objectives (cost, pollutant emissions, and reliability), which are usually in conflict, are considered simultaneously. The design of a hybrid system, considering the three mentioned objectives, poses a very complex problem of o...

Based on the concept of Modern Control theory, an optimal robust power system controller for power restoration problem using Disturbance Accommodation theory has been adopted in this paper. This proposed methodology is applied to a Two-Area Two-Unit thermal Reheat Interconnected Power System (TATURIPS) taking into account of Super Conducting Magnetic Energy Storage (SMES) device and Gas Turbine...

The isoflavonol glycoside Talosin A, genistein (GT)-7-α-L-6-deoxy talopyranose (GT-Tal), was first isolated from the culture broth of Kitasatospora kifunensis MJM341. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the oral absorption and metabolism of the newly isolated isoflavonol glycoside, GT-Tal compared to genistin (GT-7-O-β-D-glucopyranoside; GT-Glu). Free GT-Glu and GT-Tal could not be det...
